A method of solvent sublation was developed for the enantioseparation of racemic ofloxacin (rac Oflx) and racemic tryptophan (rac Trp). In this method, dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid (L-DBTA) and di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and sodium lauryl sulfate (SDS) were used as chiral coextractants and foamer, respectively. Several important parameters influencing the separation performances, s...

an efficient one-pot three-component procedure for the synthesis of new chiral spiro-oxindolopyrrolizidines with highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective from 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and optically pure active cinamoyl oxazolidinone are described. the process occurs at room temperature in aqueous ethanol as green solvent and in the absence of any bidentate chelating...

The studying of how twisted light interacts with chiral matter on the nanoscale is paramount for tackling the challenging task of optomechanical separation of nanoparticle enantiomers, whose solution can revolutionize the entire pharmaceutical industry. Here we calculate optical forces and torques exerted on chiral nanoparticles by Laguerre-Gaussian beams carrying a topological charge. We show ...

The enantiomers of fourteen O,O-dialkyl-2-benzyloxycarbonyl-aminoarylmethyl-phosphonates are directly separated on the tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) cellulose column (Chiralcel OD-R) under reversed phase mode. The results of the chiral separation are different from the results obtained in the normal phase mode. The mobile phase plays an essential role in chiral discrimination when using Chi...

Forty-one chiral sulfoxides and sulfinate esters were separated using sulfated beta-cyclodextrin and carboxymethyl beta-cyclodextrin as chiral selectors. Binding constants of some analytes to both chiral selectors were measured in order to examine and help explain the observed migration behavior and enantioselectivity trends. Overall, sulfated beta-cyclodextrin separated a greater number of com...

Recent American Food and Drug Administration guidelines have effectively determined that mixtures of chiral compounds can no longer be brought to the pharmaceuticals marketplace. These guidelines require a means for chiral detection and compound separation. This article describes separation and detection of chiral pharmaceuticals using HPLC with circular dichroism detection. Two over-the-counte...

Chiral separation has already become a crucial topic for effectively utilizing superfluous racemates synthesized by chemical means and satisfying the growing requirements producing enantiopure chiral compounds. However, remarkably...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess unique mechanical, physical, electrical and absorbability properties coupled with their nanometer dimensional scale that renders them extremely valuable for applications in many fields including nanotechnology and chromatographic separation. The aim of this review is to provide an updated overview about the applications of CNTs in chiral and achiral separations o...

A chiral amino acid-based monomeric and polymeric surfactant, sodium oleyl-L-leucylvalinate) (L-SOLV) and poly(sodium oleyl-L-leucylvalinate) (poly-L-SOLV) were synthesized and used for chiral separations in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC). Poly-L-SOLV was used successfully in the separation of various enantiomers of neutral, acidic, and basic analytes such as 1,1'-bi-2-napthol, 1...
